Online French / English language exchange

We have been meeting online since the pandemic started. We now meet on Zoom every 2nd Monday and we are online from 8pm Irish time until about 10pm. See Meetup for dates.

During the last few months, people have logged in from Ireland, France, Morocco, Jamaica, Tunisia, Spain, Belgium, Canada, Mexico, USA, Italy, Mongolia - literally all over the world!

It is a very informal gathering and it is free - it is not a class and you do not have to be fluent. During the language exchange, we speak in French and English and switch languages whenever someone wants to practise their target language. The whole idea is to practise your language skills, help others with their language skills, meet people and have a bit of fun.

How it works? 

1. Register on Meetup. 

2. We will send you a Zoom link on the day of the language exchange before it begins.
